This is a pop-up, light-up card which can be used to send out Hanukah greetings — and as a fully functional flat-pack Menorah!

Move the match around and the candles light up one by one. Hebrew letters on the card exterior can be translated as “A Great Miracle Happened There” and the two pieces of gelt hide batteries which power the 9 yellow LEDs.
